Yesterday was a very sad and dark day in American political history. I found myself having very dark thoughts as I grieved for Charile Kirk and prayed for his family and friends. Today, those dark thoughts have lifted and I wanted to share my reaction to this political assassination. First, there is no valid argument to those on the left trying to say this happens on both sides. That is a lie. The left, the legacy media, and even corporate America has either directly or indirectly supported groups who condone and perpetuate violence on conservatives and Christians in America.
It began with the BLM riots. This was a watershed moment in America. During a time when kids were not allowed to attend school and many adults were being forced to receive medical treatments or become unemployed, the Black Lives Matter movement was allowed to destroy buildings and businesses across America. They perpetuated violent attacks on innocent bystanders and even killed a retired police officer in Saint Louis. Yesterday, there were BLM social media accounts celebrating the assassination. If you spoke out against the “mostly peaceful” protests, you were labelled a racist and your businesses were targeted. Corporate America funded BLM to the tune of tens of millions of dollars of donations and the legacy media covered up the violence. Democrat politicians and celebrities contributed to bail out funds so that those who were involved were released from prison.
The BLM movement spread to fund Antifa. A group of violent anarchists who were allowed to take over the cities of Seattle and Portland. Antifa showed up on college campuses to attack and silence conservative voices who were simply there to debate on political topics without violence. There is strong evidence that Antifa is funded by progressive groups linked to George Soros.
The most recent group of violent activists being funded by the left is the trangender community. The Trans Radical Activist Network began in 2023 and has been promoting an annual “Trans Day of Vengeance.” Media reports that this group has been promoting training of these mentally disturbed individuals with the use of tactical gear and assault rifles. This group’s activity corresponds to the Christian school shootings in Nashville and Minneapolis.
Until the Democrat Party, legacy media, and corporate America cut all ties with BLM and any groups affiliated or funding Antifa and TRAN; they are complicit in the violence that is occurring. We cannot teach our nation’s black community that they are victims and it’s all white people’s fault. IF anything, let’s teach them the truth. They are trapped in a cycle of poverty because their communities aren’t safe and their schools are among the worst in America, a direct result of Defund the Police and the Teachers’ Unions. We must reclassify gender dysphoria as a mental illness and declare that there are only 2 genders. This is a simple truth. Filling children with hormones that aren’t natural to their body and mutilating their ge****ls do not fix the problem. The most effective treatment is to treat the underlying mental illness and let puberty take its course. This is not hate speech to speak the truth and they (and their parents) are being lied to by doctors who forsake their Hippocratic Oath for their political worldview.
Charlie would never want us as conservatives to resort to the despicable tactics used by the Democrat Party. He would want us all to forcefully, yet respectfully, continue to speak the truth. He would want us to continue his work of reaching America’s youth and validating their voices. What he did so well was to go on college campuses and debate those with different views and those students who shared his views but couldn’t state it so eloquently were given a voice to leave his events and push back on the progressive ideology they were being taught by those in authority at the colleges.
His work was so impactful. Yesterday, when I talked about his assassination with my children, they all knew who he was. I don’t really have a lot of political conversation with my children and it was uplifting to learn that his Turning Point USA videos are a daily watch on their Youtube feeds. I want to thank Charlie for his skill at reaching our children, especially the boys, who are often left feeling alone and outcast in today’s world.
All of us are impacted and I feel like this is the most significant event In America since 9/11. We must honor his memory by continuing his work and funding the next Charlie who I am sure will step up and take his legacy forward. For the conservative movement, we must enlist the Next Man Up approach. I know with the millions of young conservative voices that he impacted, there is another young talented person ready to take the reins and continue the movement of civil discourse in conservative politics.
RIP Charlie, you are a true American hero!
